Abstract
A disadvantage of the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is that a broad
product spectrum is obtained. Economic considerations however require an
improvement in the optimization of the reaction to maximize the production
of high value commercial products, in·particular, short chain olefins and high
molecular weight hydrocarbons. [Abbreviated abstract. Open document to view full version]
